Latest news
Just when we thought today couldn’t get any brighter 🌞 our attendees filled the room with vibrant colours at our Art Exploration group. Their beautiful ‘mark making’ creations are a wonderful reminder of the joy and creativity that art can bring.
Art Exploration is our weekly art session designed specifically for people living with dementia, and members of their families and carers. It offers a safe space for creativity, connection and social engagement.
We have spaces at our session on a Wednesday morning, 10am until 11.15am in St Peter.
Why not have a taster session to see if it’s the right fit for you and the person you care for with dementia.
Please email susie@dementia.je or call 01534 723519 to book on.

We’d really appreciate if you could take a moment to have a read, perhaps while enjoying a cuppa and learn a little more about some of our lovely clients and the support we provide.
Every small, regular gift helps us ensure that no one in Jersey has to face dementia alone. Thank you for being part of our community.

💖 Love was in the air at first community event for 2026 - our Valentine dance at Communicare last Saturday 💖 It was wonderful to see everyone up dancing and enjoying themselves.
“What a wonderful party you gave yesterday for Valentine’s Day. We enjoyed it very much. I haven’t seen him so animated for a long time. He was singing along and smiling, such a joy to see, thank you. The food was delicious and as always your volunteers were wonderful. I am so grateful for all the activities and help you give us. We would be lost without the Dementia Jersey Activities.”
We couldn’t put on these lovely community events without the support from others. We had delicious cakes donated by @ransoms_tearooms and @viennabakeryjsy, @cicoop kindly gave us vouchers for us to buy goodies towards the event and our lovely volunteer Paula baked some tasty treats too! Big thank you to the fabulous Terry Arthur for entertaining too.

Tea and Talk – to Boost Your Brain!
Our next campaign encourages everyone to maintain social connections in the wetter months.
In March, we will be launching Tea and Talk, an initiative that challenges each of us to make time to socialise with friends or family. 💜
Whether in one of our partner venues, or using the DIY packs which will shortly be available, we’re asking islanders to spend time together, as evidence shows that social connection is great for brain health. 🧠
Follow along for updates!
